Good work dizzy! Did you get them from the shop in person, or have you got one of those mysterious agents?

I hope this doesn't sound bad, but I just cant get into these new sculpts. I see a lot of potential in them, but the paint jobs aren't doing em for me.

Totally agree.
But I have to say, the new Vader that's being released looks hot. Still on the fence about buying tho'.

Sorry, the Borg blows Vader out of the water for me. Best new sculpt since the Gatchigon. And I am totally serious.
I think I like the original colors better, though.

I think I like the original colors better, though. I totally agree.. besides the gatchigon part hehe. this and the jinja are the only new sculpts I really like. This guy has so much expression in his face, his wrists are articulated and he has this cool surf/ stake mohawk/ waterfall vibe to me. I dig it and want to see some painted clears. logang1 wrote: That's not saying much...
lol.. its saying the borg slays vader, which seems like the leftover RxH half of the mad barbarians project.

From the pics I have seen I really like teh borg - has a very old skool look/feel to it - reminds me of a henshin cyborg in a vintage suit for some reason. Can't wait to get one in hand.

Even I like it...I think it's the head fin and the Tokusatsu-esque "mask eye slits" in the corner of the eye.

I think one of the mini lame cats has the character (above) and one has the star.

the one above does appear to be more yellow/ mustard color.
S7 are you getting the new borg?

star= ichibanboshi version
fortune character = shinto gangu version
I think borg is going to scream to life with some of the upcoming paints.
Mori builiding him up slow-like... amen break is coming up.
RxH sculpts are actually looking more and more like Mori's original sketches - which is awesome. personally I find vader a bit big and busy and borg RULES.
